As the words fell, many ministers at the scene got up from the ground one after another, and their eyes were full of reverence when they looked at the emperor.

Immediately afterwards, I saw a eunuch with a very loud voice stand up and say loudly.

"There are two main things to be discussed in today's court discussion, one is how to deal with the Tatar Khan, and the other is related to the newspaper that the imperial court is about to issue!"

The eunuch, after repeating the two things discussed in this court meeting, respectfully withdrew.

As soon as the words fell, I saw Wang Ting, the right attendant of the household, holding up the wat board in his hand and saying loudly.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a play!"

Jiajing looked lazy, nodded imperceptibly, and then ordered.

"Accurate!"

After getting Jiajing's consent, Wang Tingfang began to slowly explain his views.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that this Tatar Khan should be executed on the spot in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Only in this way can we comfort the souls of those victims in the sky, and at the same time, we can also play a great deterrent role on the barbarians around them, so that they can know the fate of going against my Daming!"

Mr. Wang's words quickly resonated with officials who supported the initiative.

The people of the frontier have been poisoned by the Tatars for a long time, and now they have finally caught the Tatar Khan and put him to death on the spot, which can not only wash away the shame of the imperial court in recent years, but also greatly buy people's hearts.

Although Yan Song had some guesses before this, it was only at this time that Yan Song was able to truly determine that all of this was a trick played by Xu Jie behind his back.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that leaving the Tatar Khan alive will bring more benefits to the Ming Dynasty.

In that case, why did so many extreme officials suddenly appear in the capital, and they demanded that the imperial court severely punish the Tatar Khan, or even directly put him to death on the spot! ”

In Yan Song's view, this is clearly Xu Jie's plan behind the scenes, so as to take this opportunity to win people's hearts!

Generally speaking, both parties have the same ambition and overcome difficulties together to complete a thing, and their trust in each other will be greatly improved.

To put it simply, Xu Jiezheng is taking this opportunity to screen like-minded members who can join him.

"This Xu Jie, it's really insidious!"

Thinking of this, Yan Song glanced at Xu Jie on the side imperceptibly, and withdrew his gaze before the latter noticed.

After Wang Ting's speech, officials with the same ambition cast admiring glances at him.

After listening to Wang Ting's narration, Jiajing also frowned slightly, and did not make any comments on it, and for a while, the entire court discussion scene fell into a strange atmosphere.

At this moment, Luo Longwen, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, stood up and broke the strange atmosphere, only to see him raise the wat board in his hand, look at Jiajing who was sitting on the dragon chair, and said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a play!"

Seeing this, Jiajing's brows stretched slightly, and he immediately said.

"Accurate!"

After getting Jiajing's permission, Luo Longwen looked around before he began to tell his opinion.

"Your Majesty, Weichen feels that the words of the right servant of the household department Lang Wang Ting seem to be for my sake, but in fact they are a fallacy that misleads the country and the people, and his heart can be punished!"

Luo Longwen's voice fell, and soon caused an uproar at the scene, many officials began to discuss in whispers, and Wang Ting, who was the party concerned, had a gloomy face, looking like he was choosing someone to devour.

Luo Longwen paused for a moment when he said this, and then continued.

"Weichen thinks that keeping the Tatar Khan alive will be more in line with the interests of my Ming Dynasty, and my Ming Dynasty can completely use this matter to obtain corresponding compensation from the hands of the Tatars!"

"Instead of killing it simply and rudely, in this way, my Daming will not only lack an excellent bargaining chip to deal with the Tatars, but there will also be no peace with the Tatars, and the impact on my Daming will be immeasurable, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice!"

Hearing this, Jiajing gently rubbed the dragon head carved on the side of the dragon chair with his hand, and said to Lu Fang on the side.

"Yan Song and Xu Jie, the two of them, are taking this opportunity to fight in front of me!"

When Lu Fang heard this, his expression became more and more respectful, and he immediately spoke.

"Your Majesty, do you need slaves and maids......

Jiajing shook his head imperceptibly, and then commanded.

"Forget it, let the two of them make trouble, I want to see what tricks they want to play!"

After Jiajing finished speaking, he immediately responded with a smile.

"Well, yes, is there anyone else who has a different opinion?"

In the face of the emperor's inquiry, none of the officials on the scene dared to stand up, and they all lowered their heads and looked at the ground, as if they wanted to see something from it.

At this moment, Xu Jie, who had been silent all along, gritted his teeth, stood up, and spoke.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the Tatar Khan should be severely punished!"

When Xu Jie's words fell, many officials on the scene fell into surprise, what they didn't expect was that the deputy assistant of the cabinet of the current dynasty would actually be involved in this matter, and also clearly stated their position.

Xu Jie's public standing in line undoubtedly gave the confidence of those officials who supported the severe punishment of the Tatar Great Khan, and at this moment, their favorability towards Xu Jie was also rising.

Jiajing didn't ask about the specific reason, but turned his gaze to Yan Song, who was not far from Xu Jie, and asked with a smile.

"Elder Yan Ge, what do you think?"

Yan Song noticed that the emperor's gaze fell on him, and stood up unhurriedly, and immediately told Jiajing about the plan he had already thought of before, without the slightest concealment.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen's opinion is exactly the opposite of Xu Ge Lao!"

"Wei Chen privately thinks that the Tatar Khan should be spared, and after the Tatar Khan is escorted to the capital, I can take him hostage, so as to force them to send an envoy to ransom people, and we can take this opportunity to ask for a price!"

"Regardless of whether the Tatar side agrees to our conditions or not, I will take advantage of this matter!"

Jiajing was attracted by Yan Song's words, raised his eyebrows, and immediately asked.

"Tell me, how can one take advantage of it?"

Yan Song saw that the emperor was interested in this, and then explained.

"If the Tatar side agrees to our conditions, then my Ming can grab great benefits from it, and I can make up for the losses that my Ming has suffered in recent years."

"If the Tatar side does not agree to our conditions, my Ming can also follow the example of the Tumu Fort and control the Tatar Great Khan, as long as the Tatar Great Khan is in our hands, even if they do not fall into civil strife and successfully elect a new Great Khan, it will be useless."

Yan Song paused for a moment when he said this, and then continued.

"Because the initiative of the matter will be firmly in the hands of my Daming, and my Daming will be able to meddle in the affairs of their tribe at any time in the name of "Qingjun side" for Tumaihan. ”

After listening to Yan Song's words, Jiajing also fell into deep thought, and his index finger tapped on the dragon chair on the side very regularly, making a 'da-da' sound, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.

After a long time, I saw Jiajing come back to his senses, turn his gaze to Yan Song, and speak.

"Well, yes, I'm right, I'll leave this matter to you!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"
